I've never been much of an Anthea fan, but I did warm to her a little after watching her new series of 'Perfect Housewife' on BBC3 and this prompted me to find out a little more about her as a person. Its quite a good read actually, very sad in places especially when she talks about her sister, and it was interesting to find out her side of the story for things such as the Eamon/Anthea feud and also Flakegate! She has definitely had her ups and downs in life and this made it an interesting read. A good book to take away on holiday in my opinion.

Like a lot of the other reviewers listed above, I was never really much of an Anthea fan before her Perfect Housewife series appeared on our screens.
After becoming addicted to that programme (and buying her recent How to be a Perfect Housewife book), I too found that I would like to read a little bit more about Ms Turner.
I wouldn't say the book was slushy or self indulgent - just honest, and I found it an enlightning and interesting insight into the life and career of a woman who was at one time the golden girl of our TV screens.
Anyway, I actually read the book from cover to cover in 24 hours (mind you I was in bed ill!), and really enjoyed it. It would be an excellent book to take on holiday!

While I was sceptical when I first picked up the book, it does have a certain charm and effervesence that makes it a good read. It is fast paced and with insights into Bruno 'bruiser' Brooks's behaviour, it does give you something to feast on.

A real page Turner!
Anthea has, over the years, come in for a lot of criticism especially in the tabloid press. And, this book when published didn't receive many good reviews. Read more

Sorry, Anthea.
...Yes, it's terrible, and it's shallow...Admittedly, bographies are self-indulgent, by their very nature, but the good ones (Frank Skinner's, for example) contain enough humour... Read more

Why?
I can't believe this book exists. I mean I know she's famous and everything, but is there really going to be anything to her life I can't read about in Hello or OK? Read more
